## **The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St John the Evangelist, Carrington**
## **Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit**
The public benefit from:
- the church mission, baptism, wedding and funeral services;
- links with local schools and the residents' association,
- the availability of community rooms for events, classes and meetings; the churchyard for relaxation and exercise;
- the maintenance of a listed building;
- The building is used as a polling station for elections.
## **Summary of the main achievements during the period**
The church has continued to serve the local community. An excellent working relationship exists with the residents. The summer Carrington Festival was not held because of Covid guidelines but an Advent Fair did take place. The Community Cafe has continued to provide social contact for local people and successful work experience for young adults but has similarly been required to close at times. During this period the church ran a Food Bank to meet local needs.
Income from giving has been sufficient to maintain services. The letting of community rooms continued where possible despite operating at a loss until the final quarter of the year.
Grants claimed from the government Employment Support Scheme enabled the retention of the church caretaker. A grant for the Community Café was received from the Coop supermarket.
The major risk financial risk would be that arising from sudden changes in income or from substantial repairs to the building.
## **The charity’s policy on reserves**
The trustees recognise their responsibility to employees and the community. They have determined to adopt the advice of the diocese to maintain three months of general income as reserves.

## **Independent examiner's report to the trustees of The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St John the Evangelist,Carrington for the year ended 31 December 2021**
I report to the trustees on my examination of the accounts of The Parochial Church Council of the Ecclesiastical Parish of St John the Evangelist, Carrington (the charity) for the year ended 31 December 2021.
## **Responsibilities and basis of report**
As the trustees of the charity you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Charities Act 2011 (‘the Act’). I report in respect of my examination of the charity’s accounts carried out under section 145 of the 2011 Act and in carrying out my examination I have followed all the applicable Directions given by the Charity Commission under section 145(5)(b) of the Act.
## **Independent examiner’s statement**
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe that in any material respect:
1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the charity as required by section 130 of the Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records.
I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
